Before 7:30 pm, they're on the SE corner of 53rd & 6th. Just FYI. The long line on SW isn't the real guys during lunch crowd.

Its the best and biggest portion of Street cart anywhere. go combo with white and BBQ unless u like it spice then switch BBQ for hot sauce...
Michael WitbrockJuly 17, 2016
Tell them not to put the white stuff (some kind of mayonnaise) on your sandwich.

Awesome food. Very delicious... One of the best halal foods in New York

I actually prefer the lamb over the chicken. Get the mix to get both. Tons of white sauce, careful on the red...so good though!

The food is amazing, abundant and cheap.

Best street meat there is. World renowned.
Susie BarkerApril 14, 2013
Surprisingly it really is tasty and delicious! The line moves fast.

Is it really halal like I know some shacks say halal but they sell pork. So is it really halal?

Trick is to mix a little of the hot sauce in with the white sauce, perfect combination!

Gyro wrap or combo plates are all good.
BettinaAugust 26, 2012
The one near 52nd and 6th had a shorter queue. The mix plate is the best!
FerasAugust 22, 2014
The hot sauce might kill you! You've been warned! Lol
abbyJuly 18, 2011

The red sauce is hot. No really, carful, it's hot. 🔥🔥🔥

They are franchising. Look for locations popping up near you! http://nyti.ms/1ltWppH

Best in the City! Get in line, it's worth the wait!
EthanNovember 30, 2014
The platters are the way to go, avoid the falafel.
Justas ZJuly 14, 2015
Cheap, good, filling. Watch out with the red sauce!
Mubarak ChaudhryAugust 7, 2015
It's OK food. Nothing to write home about. OK shawarma, tasteless chicken, standard mayo based white sauce, unimaginatively ridiculously harsh hot sauce. Rice is the star! I count it as a demerit!
Aryan JOctober 9, 2010
It's a rookie move to stay on the line if it's huge. Visit their sister cart a few feet down 6th (and 52nd). It's the same thing!
M. AlshammaryApril 3, 2018

Chicken and rice with extra lettuce. Make sure to get enough white sauce and chili. $6
Sergio GalzeranoJuly 19, 2017
Great combo over rice with white sauce!
Salvador SalazarDecember 26, 2011
You get a lot of food for $6. Well worth the wait. As always, be careful of the hot sauce
Ibrahim AbdullahAugust 13, 2014
Mix chicken and lamb over yellowish rice is the BEST!
Nour RMay 18, 2011
The best food ever, you get addicted to it must try there is a reason why they have a line !!!
Michael CarusoJune 25, 2010
The hot sauce is HOT. The whole container they give you will make your mouth burn for a bit afterwards.

The real one is on the SE corner. Don't be fooled by the imposter on the sw corner. You'll notice different shirts and bags. Go to the one with the yellow bags
Mohammed AlmalikSeptember 22, 2014
Best cart food in NY 😍
Aldo CabreraOctober 10, 2012
Have 2000 calories to spare? Well that's how munch the chicken & lamb combo plate is with white sauce.
